wifi: ath10k: Fix connection after GTK rekeying



It appears that not all hardware/firmware implementations support
group key deletion correctly, which can lead to connection hangs
and deauthentication following GTK rekeying (delete and install).

To avoid this issue, instead of attempting to delete the key using
the special WMI_CIPHER_NONE value, we now replace the key with an
invalid (random) value.

This behavior has been observed with WCN39xx chipsets.

Tested-on: WCN3990 hw1.0 WLAN.HL.3.3.7.c2-00931-QCAHLSWMTPLZ-1
